Question
explore the exterior angles of polygons by following these steps.
- press continue to examine another polygon.
- these sectors show the exterior angles of a quadrilateral. press continue to see if they form a circle.
- press continue to examine another polygon.
- these sectors show the exterior angles of a pentagon. press continue to see if they form a circle.
- in all three cases, the sectors formed a circle. make a conjecture. what is the sum of the exterior angles of any polygon?
Step1: Recall the property of a circle
A full - circle has an angle measure of \(360^{\circ}\).
Step2: Analyze the given cases
In the cases of the triangle (implied in step 2, as it's part of exploring polygons), quadrilateral, and pentagon, the sectors (representing exterior angles) formed a circle.
